COMING TO TERMS WITH BEING AN ADULT

Earlier today I was reading an article on Thought Catalog, about the signals you find when you’re becoming who you’re supposed to be, and the truth is, most of those applied to me already, and I started wondering, so, is this it? Is this who I’m going to be for the rest of my life? Am I an adult now?

And the truth is, my millennial self doesn’t want to aknowledge the fact that I am, a fully grown person, getting closer to my 30’s and further away from my 20’s each day, I am no longer a kid even when I’m still living with my mom.

What does it all mean? I mean, I feel the same as when I was 17, is this wrong? But at the same time I feel different, so many things have changed in the past 11 years, and so many things have stayed the same, but yes, I am an adult now, and have been for a while now.

How are things different? Well, I’m still confused about life, but I can now accept it and deal with it, I know there are things about myself that I need to work on, and I’ve become more selective with a lot of aspects of my life, friends, new people, what I eat, what I wear, where I hang out and who I hang out with.

Is this a millennial thing? Or does this happen to every human being when entering adulthood? The truth is I don’t know, the only thing I know is that it is happening to me right now and I wanted to share it with you. Share your thoughts?
